So who can you trust in the adult biz?

you can't trust anyone because this is a business, and they are all your direct competitors

at the same time, however, you must take risks, and develope business relationships

if you are starting small, then start with small transactions to build levels of trust with new people to do business with

I know that is a bunch of bs, but it seems to me the only way to get started

after a while you will deveope a group of collegues you can trust and then build on your business with stronger interactions and bigger risks

just my

Trust what? who? whats that? Never heard of it in business! (any business)

What are you trusting them with? Your money? eh? Oh yeah send it to me ~~

Just kidding . Trust is a big word. We have a friend who had a great idea he told a trusted friend in the Adult Industry and he ran with it. He is doing fine the guy who had the idea is still sitting in a small apartment (now drinking)

Just make sure you know what you are trusting them with.

Trust your parents or your better half

All the Russian webmaster bashing..... anyone ever do business with this guy?

"Levchin, 26, emigrated to the United States from Ukraine as a teenager and moved to Silicon Valley after graduation from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign to start a company based in part on his passion for cryptography. He co-founded PayPal, currently the leading online person-to-person payment system, in 1999. The company went public in February and recently posted its first profitable quarter."

There was always something about PayPal that made me think 'fucking rip off bastards' but couldn't quite put my finger on it. Now I know what it was!

This whole industry is like the italian mafia... piss off one person, you've pissed off "a friend of a friend of a friend"

Keep your friends close, your enemies closer...

Seriously tho. If you're asking who you can trust, you're not ready to trust anyone yet. Build up your business relying on no one but yourself. If you get into some kind of partnership, keep it separate from your biz and don't let your biz go on the backburner in the meantime... never EVER let one thing be the crux of your success/failure (multiple streams of income)...

Okay that's enough waxing philisophical for me today. Someone tell me to GFM.

Carrie....Go Fuck Yourself!!

When the check clears, trust that.

After years and years of doing business with someone or a company, begin to think about trusting them.

Trust your instincts. If something doesn't look right, it isn't. If it sounds too good to be true, it is.

Network like crazy and meet people in the industry, off line. It's the only way to start taking a true measure of their character and even that's not enough.

Good business ethics elude some. Know that and you're halfway there.

Only trust 3rd party billing.

And make sure it really is a 3rd party, and not owned by the operators of the sponsor.

And then make sure the 3rd party biller is not carrying serious debt.

and then you can be 50% sure you wont get screwed!

;)

If it hisses like a snake and it slithers like one....it's most likely a snake.

Personally, I can't complain. I can't say anyone has f*cked us over. We are careful who we deal with. We ask alot of questions before we send money to anyone. Don't invest way too much money in case it was a REAL bad idea. Start small and move your way up. Always be on the look out.
